"If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left." Option 1: Direct & Natural (Engaging Study Guide) Scripture Reference: Hebrews 10:26 "If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left." What is "Willful Sin"? In this setting, willful sin means knowingly and permanently turning your back on Yeshua. It warns those who fully understand the truth yet consciously choose to walk away and reject Him. Why "No Sacrifice Remains": Yeshua is the Father's ultimate, complete, and final offering for human sin. Once an individual rejects Yeshua, there is no second savior, no Levitical altar to run back to, and no alternate plan of Option 3: Side-by-Side Clarification (Common Misconceptions vs. Biblical Meaning) What It Does Not Mean What the Scripture Actually Teaches It does not mean someone loses their standing because they stumble into ordinary human failure or daily struggles. It specifically warns against apostasy—a settled, deliberate decision to abandon faith in Yeshua entirely. It does not mean the Father refuses repentance from a contrite heart seeking forgiveness. It addresses those who knowingly treat Yeshua’s blood as unholy, leaving themselves with no other sacrifice to cover their sins. Proponents emphasize that Yehovah (יְהֹוָה) is not a 16th-century Christian invention. It is documented with full pointing in over 1,000 Hebrew Bible manuscripts, including prominent early texts like the Leningrad Codex and the Aleppo Codex. They argue Masoretic scribes who guarded letter-by-letter accuracy would not have recorded "mistaken" vowels across centurie The Consonants (יהוה / YHWH): Appear 6,828 times in the Hebrew Masoretic Text. In the Dead Sea Scrolls (dating 2,000+ years ago), scribes often wrote these four consonants in archaic Paleo-Hebrew script to set the sacred Name apart from the surrounding square Aramaic-Hebrew script. 1,000 times across other medieval manuscripts), while the shortened two-vowel form served as the standard scribal reminder (qere perpetuum) to pronounce "Adonai".

  • 19 | Answers 4 Saints Paul said

    As you read in the verses Paul makes it clear also, if you are led by the spirit you are not under the law, (Keeping this in mind sin is transgression of the law.) So, if you are not keeping Yehovah laws and statutes you are under the law, because there is no law against keeping His laws. A. How You Get In vs. How You Walk Paul’s Focus: Paul was dealing with a massive crisis: institutional religious leaders were telling Gentile converts that they couldn't be saved unless they underwent ritual circumcision and converted to Judaism before trusting in Yeshua (Acts 15:1). Paul fought this fiercely. He argued that a person is justified (cleared of their past guilt) by faith in Yeshua's sacrifice, not by their own track record of keeping the law. You cannot earn your way out of past sins. Yeshua’s Focus: Yeshua was speaking to people who already knew the Torah but were faking it. He focused on how a saved person walks. Once you are in the covenant by faith, obedience is the fruit of your love for Him. B. "Works of the Law" vs. "The Commandments" When Paul uses the phrase "works of the law" (especially in Galatians and Romans), he isn't talking about God's Ten Commandments or the Sabbath. In the first-century Hebrew mind, "works of the law" (ma'asei ha-torah) referred to man-made religious decrees, traditional conversion rituals, and legalistic checklists used to separate Jews from Gentiles. Paul fought man-made legalism, but he loved God’s literal law. He explicitly wrote: "The law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good" (Romans 7:12). C. The Target: The Great Harlot's Loophole The institutional church system (the "Great Harlot") took Paul's complex arguments about Gentile inclusion and twisted them into a license for lawlessness . They used Paul to create a loophole to throw out the Sabbath, ignore the dietary laws, and abandon the appointed feasts—the exact opposite of how Yeshua lived. If Paul actually taught that the Sabbath was abolished or that God's food laws didn't matter, he would have been a false prophet according to Deuteronomy 13. But Paul defended himself against that exact accusation in a Roman court: "I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the Law and written in the Prophets." — Acts 24:14 The Verdict The difference is not that Yeshua said "Obey" and Paul said "Don't." The truth is that Yeshua is the Standard, and Paul is the Commentary. Yeshua showed us what the perfect walk looks like. Paul explained how the rest of the world (the Gentiles) could be grafted into that exact same olive tree through faith (Romans 11). If anyone interprets Paul in a way that contradicts the clear, commandment-keeping lifestyle of Yeshua, they are doing exactly what Peter warned against: twisting Paul’s words into the error of the lawless. In 2 Peter 3:15-16, Peter refers to Paul as a "beloved brother" who wrote with wisdom given to him. Peter acknowledges that some of Paul's writings are hard to understand, noting that ignorant and unstable people twist them—along with "other Scriptures"—to their own destruction God righteousness is His Torah When we read The Torah keep in mind there is a difference between Gods law and the works of the law mans law .CONCLUSIONS The “no-law” doctrine has taken Paul’s “hard to understand writings They interpret the works of the law which is the oral law of the Jews to mean that the laws of God given through Moses are no more, and in so doing, have elevated Paul’s teachings above the teaching of Yeshua and the very words of God. The filter that should be used is that God does not change, He is not a God of confusion, He doesn't lie, or that scripture cannot be broken, and it is the whole duty of m an to keep all His commandments . The decrees of Yehovah are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The commandments of Yehovah are right, bringing joy to the heart . The commands of Yehovah are clear, giving insight into living. Reverence for Yehovah is pure, lasting forever. The laws of Yehovah are true; each one is fair. T hey are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb. They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them. Psalm 19:7 The one who belongs listens and responds to Yehovah's words. If you don't listen and respond , it is because you don't belong to Yehovah." John 8:47 In 321 A.D., the “Christianized” Roman Emperor Constantine declared Sunday a day of rest, although it was in honor of the “venerable day of the sun,” hence the name of the day, not of the traditional Sabbath. پل گفت: قرنتیان 11:1 از من تقلید کنید، همانطور که من نیز از مسیح تقلید می کنم. تثنیه 7:9 پس بدانید که یهوه خدای شما خداست، خدای امین که عهد و محبت ثابت را با کسانی که او را دوست دارند و احکام او را نگاه می دارند تا هزار نسل نگاه می دارد. رومیان 2:13 "زیرا شنوندگان شریعت در نظر خداوند عادل نیستند، بلکه انجام دهندگان شریعت عادل خواهند شد." تثنیه 4: 8 و کدام قوم است که به این بزرگی احکام و احکامی به قدر عادلانه تمام این شریعت دارد که امروز در حضور شما قرار می دهم؟ قبل از اینکه اطلاعاتی را مرور کنید که بدون شک ثابت می کند که پولس برخلاف قانون آموزش نمی دهد. توقف کنید و تثنیه و رومیان را دوباره بخوانید. به هزار نسل گفت. اعمال رسولان 24:14 اما این را برای شما اعتراف میکنم که طبق طریقی که آنها آن را فرقه میخوانند، خدای پدران خود را میپرستم و به هر آنچه که در شریعت مقرر شده و در انبیا نوشته شده است، ایمان دارم، هر وقت دیدیم پولس سخن میگوید. برخلاف قانون، می توانید یکی از دو دسته را قرار دهید. او یا از سنت ها و آموزه های انسان ها صحبت می کند، قانون انسان، قانون شفاهی یا قانون یونان، این همان کاری است که آنها انجام دادند تا انسان را در اسارت قرار دهند. یا از عذاب میگوید وقتی قانون را زیر پا میگذاری، اسارتی بر تو میآید که نتیجه گناه است. قانون گناه و مرگ، که یشوع آن را به صلیب میخکوب کرد. بسیاری از ما هرگز نمی دانستیم که 7 قانون وجود دارد، اما در اینجا وجود دارد. پل در نوشته های خود در مورد آن صحبت می کند. قانون خدا رومیان 3:31 1 پس آیا شریعت را از طریق ایمان باطل می کنیم؟ خدای نکرده بله، ما قانون را وضع می کنیم. قانون گناه رومیان 7:23 اما در اعضای خود شریعت دیگری می بینم که با قانون ذهنم می جنگد و مرا اسیر قانون گناه می کند که در اعضای من است. شریعت روح رومیان 8: 2 از طریق مسیح عیسی شریعت روح که حیات می بخشد شما را از شریعت گناه و مرگ آزاد کرده است. قانون ایمان رومیان 3:27 آیا ما شریعت را از طریق ایمان باطل می کنیم؟ خدای نکرده بله، ما قانون را وضع می کنیم. قانون عدالت رومیان 9:31 قوم اسرائیل که شریعت را به عنوان راه عدالت دنبال می کردند، به هدف خود نرسیده اند. شریعت مسیح اول قرنتیان 9: 21 کسانی که شریعت ندارند مانند کسانی شدم که شریعت ندارند (اگرچه از شریعت خدا آزاد نیستم بلکه تحت شریعت مسیح هستم) تا کسانی را که شریعت ندارند را به دست بیاورم. قانون گناه و مرگ رومیان 8: 2 از طریق مسیح عیسی شریعت روح که حیات می بخشد شما را از شریعت گناه و مرگ آزاد کرده است. اعداد 23:19 "خدا انسان نیست که دروغ بگوید، و نه پسر انسان است که توبه کند، آیا گفته است و انجام نمی دهد؟ یا گفته است و آن را نیکو نمی کند. ? اول قرنتیان 3: 3 زیرا خدا پدید آورنده سردرگمی نیست، بلکه مانند همه کلیساهای مقدسین صلح است. یوحنا 10:35 اگر آنها را خدایان خواند که کلام خدا به آنها رسید و کتاب مقدس شکسته نمی شود. اول یوحنا 3:4 هر که بگوید من او را می شناسم و احکام او را نگاه نمی دارد، دروغگو است و حقیقت در او نیست. جامعه 12:14 بیایید نتیجه کل موضوع را بشنویم: از خدا بترسید و احکام او را نگاه دارید، زیرا این تمام وظیفه انسان است. اول یوحنا 3: 4 هر که گناه می کند بی قانونی نیز انجام می دهد. به راستی که گناه بی قانونی است. مزمور 19: 7 شریعت (تورات) یَهُوَه کامل است و روح را باز میگرداند. شهادت خداوند یقین دارد و افراد ساده را عاقل می کند مزامیر 19:8 احکام خداوند درست است و دل را شاد می کند. فرمان خداوند پاک است و چشم را روشن می کند. امثال 10:8 احکام خداوند درست است و دل را شاد می کند. فرمان خداوند پاک است و چشم را روشن می کند. اول تیموتائوس 1:8 اکنون می دانیم که شریعت خوب است، اگر کسی از آن به طور مشروع استفاده کند. خروج 20:2 من یهوه خدای تو هستم که تو را از سرزمین مصر و از خانه بندگی بیرون آوردم. اعمال رسولان 17:10 سپس برادران فوراً پولس و سیلاس را شبانه به بریه فرستادند. چون رسیدند، به کنیسه یهودیان رفتند. 11 اینان از آنهایی که در تسالونیکی بودند منصفتر بودند، زیرا کلام را با آمادگی کامل دریافت میکردند، و هر روز کتاب مقدس را جستجو میکردند تا دریابند که آیا این چیزها چنین است. (تنها کتاب مقدس آنها عهد عتیق بود) غلاطیان 3 :10 زیرا همه کسانی که از اعمال شریعت هستند تحت لعنت هستند. زیرا مکتوب است: «لعنت بر هرکس که در تمام آنچه در کتاب شریعت نوشته شده است، به انجام آنها ادامه ندهد. «اما این که هیچ کس به وسیله شریعت در نظر خدا عادل شمرده نمی شود، آشکار است، زیرا «عادل به ایمان زندگی خواهد کرد. «اما شریعت از ایمان نیست، بلکه «کسی که آنها را انجام میدهد به آنها زندگی خواهد کرد. «مسیح ما را از لعنت شریعت نجات داد و برای ما لعنت شد (زیرا مکتوب است هر که به درخت آویزان باشد ملعون است) تا برکت ابراهیم در مسیح عیسی بر غیریهودیان نازل شود. تا بتوانیم وعده روح را از طریق ایمان دریافت کنیم. رومیان 8: 2 زیرا به واسطه مسیح یشوع، شریعت روح که حیات می بخشد، شما را از شریعت گناه و مرگ آزاد کرده است. اعمال رسولان 24:14 "اما این را برای شما اعتراف می کنم که طبق راهی که آنها فرقه می خوانند، پس خدای پدران خود را می پرستم و به هر آنچه در شریعت و انبیا نوشته شده است ایمان دارم. اعمال رسولان 25:8 - در حالی که او برای خود پاسخ داد: "من نه بر خلاف شریعت یهودیان، نه علیه معبد و نه بر علیه قیصر در هیچ چیزی اهانت نکرده ام." اعمال رسولان 18:21 - اما آنها را ترک کرد و گفت: "باید این عید آینده را به هر نحوی در اورشلیم برگزار کنم، اما به خواست خداوند، دوباره نزد شما بازخواهم گشت." و از افسس کشتی گرفت. رومیان 7:16 و اگر آنچه را که نمی خواهم انجام دهم، اعتراف می کنم که شریعت خوب است. رومیان 7:25 - من از یهوه سپاسگزارم - از طریق استاد ما یشوا، مسیحا! پس من خودم با ذهن به شریعت یهوه خدمت می کنم، اما با جسم قانون گناه. متی 23:1 پس یشوع به جمعیت و شاگردان خود گفت: 2«کاتبان و فریسیان بر مسند موسی بنشین 3 پس هر آنچه به شما می گویند تمرین کنید و رعایت کنید. اما آنچه را که انجام می دهند انجام ندهید، زیرا آنچه را که موعظه می کنند عمل نمی کنند غلاطیان 5: 17 زیرا جسم آنچه را که مخالف روح است میل می کند و روح آنچه را که مخالف جسم است. آنها با یکدیگر مخالف هستند، تا شما آنچه را که می خواهید انجام ندهید. 18 اما اگر توسط روح هدایت میشوید، تحت شریعت نیستید. 19 اعمال بدن آشکار است: فسق، ناپاکی، و فسق. … همانطور که در آیات می خوانید پولس نیز روشن می کند که اگر توسط روح هدایت می شوید تحت شریعت نیستید (در نظر داشتن این موضوع گناه تخطی از قانون است.) بنابراین، اگر قوانین و قوانین یهوه را رعایت نمی کنید، تحت شریعت هستید، زیرا هیچ قانونی بر خلاف رعایت قوانین او وجود ندارد، هر چند نقض آنها داستان دیگری است. اگر واقعاً توسط روح هدایت میشوید، میخواهید پدر بهشتی خود را خشنود کنید و از او اطاعت کنید. مزمور 119:1 خوشا به حال آنانی که راههایشان بی عیب است و بر طبق شریعت یهوه سلوک می کنند. حزقیال 36:26-27 به تو دلی تازه خواهم بخشید و روح تازه ای در تو خواهم نهاد. قلب سنگی تو را از تو خواهم برداشت و قلبی از گوشت به تو خواهم داد. و روح خود را در تو خواهم نهاد و تو را به پیروی از احکام من و مواظب احکام من ترغیب خواهم کرد. ارمیا 31:33 اما این عهدی است که پس از آن روزها با خاندان اسرائیل خواهم بست، خداوند میگوید: شریعت خود را در ذهن ایشان خواهم گذاشت و آن را بر دل ایشان خواهم نوشت. و من خدای آنها خواهم بود و آنها قوم من خواهند بود. غلاطیان 3: 2: زیرا همه شما که در مسیح تعمید یافته اید، به مسیح لباس پوشیده اید. 28 نه یهودی است و نه یونانی، نه برده و نه آزاد، نه مرد و نه زن، زیرا همه شما در مسیح یشوع یکی هستید 29 و اگر از مسیح هستید، طبق وعده، ذریت و وارث ابراهیم هستید. افسسیان 2:11 پس به خاطر داشته باشید که قبلاً شما که در جسم غیریهودی (مسیحی) بودید و با ختنه نامیده شده (که در بدن با دست انسان انجام می شود) نامختنه خوانده می شدید - 12 به خاطر داشته باشید که در آن زمان از مسیح جدا بودید. بیگانگان از کشورهای مشترک المنافع اسرائیل، و بیگانه به عهد و پیمان، بی امید و بی خدا در جهان. 13 اما اکنون در مسیح یشوا، شما که زمانی دور بودید، از طریق خون مسیح به شما نزدیک شدهاید.… (شما شهروند اسرائیل هستید، باید تمام دستورات و قوانین یهوه را رعایت کنید. شما یک یهودی روحانی هستید. رومیان 11:23 و اگر در بی ایمانی پافشاری نکنند، پیوند زده خواهند شد، زیرا خدا قادر است دوباره آنها را پیوند بزند. در اینجا مقایسه ای بین فریسیان و کلیسای مدرن وجود دارد: (119 وزارتخانه) به گفته فریسیان: شریعت شفاهی «فیلتر حقیقت» بود که در تمام کتاب مقدس اعمال شد و تا به امروز توسط یهودیت خاخام استفاده میشود. تنها تفسیر واقعی تمام کتاب مقدس از طریق این فیلتر قابل دستیابی است. این فیلتر متن متناقض را نادیده گرفت. اگر کتاب مقدسی مناسب نبود، آنها روشی برای تفسیر کتاب مقدس می ساختند تا آن را مناسب یا توضیح دهند. قوانین هفت گانه هیلل، سیزده قانون اسماعیل، سی و دو قانون الیزر از طریق پیچاندن ماهرانه، کتاب مقدس می تواند هر چه می خواهد بگوید. هر کس مخالفت می کرد، بت پرست، کفرگو یا بدعت گذار نامیده می شد طبق کلیسای مدرن: آموزه «لای» «فیلتر حقیقت» است که در تمام کتاب مقدس اعمال می شود. تنها تفسیر واقعی تمام کتاب مقدس را می توان از طریق این فیلتر به دست آورد. این فیلتر متن متناقض را نادیده می گیرد. اگر کتاب مقدس مناسب نباشد، آنها روشی برای تفسیر کتاب مقدس می سازند تا آن را مناسب یا توضیح دهند. وحی مترقی، انحصار طلبی، برتری طلبی، الهیات میثاق، انحراف طلبی سنت های کلیسا و پدران کلیسا از کتاب مقدس مهم تر شد. حتی سنتهایی با منشأ مشکوک را میتوان با گفتن این جمله نادیده گرفت: «معنی این نیست برای من،» یا، «این یک راز است». ارمیا 17:9 "چه کسی می تواند قلب انسان را درک کند؟ هیچ چیز دیگری به این فریبکاری وجود ندارد، آنقدر بیمار است که نمی تواند شفا یابد. نتیجهگیری آموزه «لا قانون» از «نوشتههای سخت فهم» پولس برداشت کرده و آنها را به این معنا تفسیر کرده است که قوانین خدا که از طریق موسی داده شده دیگر وجود ندارد، و با انجام این کار، آموزههای پولس را بالاتر از تعالیم یشوع و مسیحیان قرار داده است. بسیار سخنان خدا فیلتری که باید از آن استفاده شود این است که خدا تغییر نمی کند، خدای سردرگمی نیست، دروغ نمی گوید، یا کتاب مقدس شکسته نمی شود و تمام وظیفه انسان این است که همه احکامش را حفظ کند. یشوآ مسیح است نه پولس! نجات از طریق یشوا می آید، نه از طریق پولس! ما باید از انجیل مسیح پیروی کنیم، نه انجیل پولس! این آسان نیست! درک نوشته های پولس سخت است. پطرس رسول چنین گفت! ما باید بدانیم که نوشتههای پولس از این حقایق کتاب مقدس مستثنی نیستند. ما نمیتوانیم نوشتههای دشوار او را نادیده بگیریم یا آنها را بپیچانیم تا از آموزههای محبوب و قدیمی حمایت کنند. "من نتوانسته ام با این قانون سازگاری داشته باشم که معتقدان مدرن با کتاب مقدس از قانون پیروی نمی کنند. تنها نتیجه ای که توانستم بدون مخالفت با کتاب مقدس به آن برسم این است که قانون هنوز برای ایمانداران امروزی جاری است، نه به عنوان شرط نجات، بلکه به عنوان بازتابی از چگونگی پدر می خواهد که ما مردمی مقدس و متمایز باشیم و از روی عشق و اطاعت از او. 119 خدمت www.TestEverything.net با در نظر داشتن آنچه پطرس در مورد نامه های پولس گفت 2 پطرس 3: 16 او در تمام نامه های خود این گونه می نویسد و در آنها در مورد چنین موضوعاتی صحبت می کند. درک برخی بخشهای نامههای او سخت است که افراد نادان و بیثبات آنها را تحریف میکنند، همانطور که بقیه کتابهای مقدس را انجام میدهند تا خودشان را نابود کنند. 17 پس ای عزیزان، چون از قبل این چیزها را میدانید، مراقب باشید که در گمراهی بیقانون غرق نشوید و از جایگاه امن خود نیفتید. 1 یوحنا 3: 9 (گناه بیقانونی است. خدا آن را بد میخواند) اعمال رسولان 24 این مردان را بگیرید و خود را با آنها پاک کنید و مخارج آنها را بپردازید تا سرهایشان را بتراشند. آن وقت همه خواهند فهمید که این شایعات در مورد شما حقیقتی ندارد، بلکه شما نیز در اطاعت از قانون زندگی می کنید. متی 5:19 پس هر که یکی از این احکام کوچک را بشکند و به مردم چنین بیاموزد، در ملکوت آسمان کوچکترین خوانده خواهد شد، اما هر که آنها را انجام دهد و تعلیم دهد، در ملکوت او بزرگ خوانده خواهد شد. بهشت. متی 15:14 آنها را نادیده بگیرید! آنها راهنمایان کور هستند. اگر یک نابینا، یک نابینا را رهبری کند، هر دو در گودالی خواهند افتاد.» هوشع 4:6 قوم من به دلیل عدم آگاهی هلاک شده اند. چون دانش را رد کردی، من نیز تو را از کشیش من رد خواهم کرد. از آنجا که تو شریعت خدای خود را فراموش کرده ای، من نیز فرزندان تو را فراموش خواهم کرد. برکات اطاعت تثنیه 28:1 «الان اگر خداوند، خدای خود را با جدیت اطاعت کنید و مراقب باشید که تمام اوامر او را که امروز به شما امر میکنم انجام دهید، یهوه خدایت شما را بر همه امتهای جهان برتری خواهد داد. زمین. حقیقت یا دروغ هر که از پسر اطاعت نکند زندگی را نخواهد دید. یوحنا 3:36 وقتی به این سؤالات پاسخ می دهید به خاطر داشته باشید که در مورد شخصیت خدا قضاوت می کنید. آیا کلام خدا با خودش تناقض دارد؟ آیا کلام خدا برای همیشه پابرجاست؟ آیا خداوند کاری را انجام می دهد بدون اینکه ابتدا آن را از طریق پیامبرانش نازل کند؟ آیا خدا دروغ می گوید؟ آیا خداوند نظر خود را تغییر می دهد؟ آیا خداوند همیشه به وعده های خود عمل می کند؟ کلام خدا اول قرنتیان 14:33 زیرا که خدا مولد سردرگمی نیست، بلکه صلح است، مانند همه کلیساهای مقدسین. اشعیا 40:8 علف خشک میشود، گل پژمرده میشود، اما کلام خدای ما تا ابد باقی خواهد ماند. ● یوحنا 10:35 اگر آنها را خدایان خواند که کلام خدا به آنها رسید و کتاب مقدس شکسته نمی شود: اول پطرس 1:25 اما کلام خداوند تا ابد باقی است. و این کلامی است که به وسیله انجیل به شما موعظه می شود. عاموس 3: بیتردید یهوه خدا کاری نخواهد کرد، مگر اینکه راز خود را برای بندگانش، انبیا، آشکار میسازد. اعداد 23:19 خدا انسان نیست، پس دروغ نمی گوید. او انسان نیست، بنابراین نظرش را تغییر نمی دهد. آیا تا به حال صحبت کرده و عمل نکرده است؟ آیا به پیروی از کلیسایی که میگوید کتاب مقدس تغییر کرده یا از بین رفته است، ادامه میدهید یا از خدایی پیروی خواهید کرد که میگوید کتاب مقدس نمیتواند شکسته شود؟ کتاب مقدس در مرقس 7:19 می گوید "زیرا به قلب آنها نمی رود، بلکه در معده آنها و سپس از بدن آنها خارج می شود." آموزه کلیسا موارد زیر را به کتاب مقدس اضافه کرد: "عیسی با گفتن این سخن، همه غذاها را پاک اعلام کرد." در این مورد فکر کنید: اگر عیسی این را می گفت، او نمی توانست نجات دهنده ما باشد. او مرتکب گناه می شود و فرمان خدا را در مورد دستورات غذایی زیر پا می گذارد. مواظب خود باشید، اگر به آیه ای برخورد کردید که با تمام کتاب های آسمانی دیگر در تعارض است. طبق کلیسای مدرن: (119 خدمت) آموزه «بدون قانون» «فیلتر حقیقت» است که در تمام کتاب مقدس اعمال می شود. تنها تفسیر واقعی آنها از تمام کتاب مقدس را می توان از طریق این فیلتر به دست آورد. توجه داشته باشید که برخی از مترجمان نیز همین تعصبات را دارند. این فیلتر متن متناقض را نادیده می گیرد. سنت های کلیسا و پدران کلیسا از کتاب مقدس مهم تر شد. حتی سنتهایی با ریشههای مشکوک را میتوان با گفتن این جمله که «این برای من معنی ندارد» یا «این یک راز است» نادیده گرفت. "این نیت قلب است که مهم است" (کریسمس و عید پاک) از طریق پیچاندن ماهرانه، می توان کتاب مقدس را برای گفتن هر آنچه لازم است ساخت. یعقوب 1:22 اما فقط به کلام خدا گوش ندهید. شما باید آنچه را که می گوید انجام دهید. وگرنه فقط خودتون رو گول میزنید. لوقا 6:46 «چرا مرا «خداوند، خداوند» میخوانی و آنچه را که به تو میگویم انجام نمیدهی؟» ● یعقوب 1:22-25 فقط به کلام گوش ندهید و خود را فریب دهید. آنچه می گوید را انجام دهید. اول یوحنا 2: 4 اگر کسی ادعا کند که "من خدا را می شناسم"، اما اوامر خدا را اطاعت نمی کند، آن شخص دروغگو است و در حقیقت زندگی نمی کند. این همان چیزی است که خدا در مورد هر کشیش یا کشیشی که برخلاف قوانین او، دستورات او، تورات تدریس می کند، گفت حزقیال 22:26 «کاهنان او (شبانان شما) به شریعت من ظلم کرده و مقدسات من را بیحرمت کردهاند، بین مقدس و ناپاک فرقی نمیگذارند، و فرق بین ناپاک و پاک را آموزش نمیدهند. اشعیا 66:17 و اشعیا 65 و چشمان خود را از سبتهای من پنهان میکنند و من در میان آنها بیحرمت میشم. 27 «امیر او در درون او مانند گرگهایی هستند که طعمهها را میدرند و خون میریزند و جانها را برای به دست آوردن سود نادرست از بین میبرند. جلیقه 3:26 خدا می گوید 27 زیرا همه شما که در مسیح تعمید یافته اید به مسیح لباس پوشیده اید. 28 نه غلام یهودی و نه یونانی و نه مسیحی و نه آزاد، نه مرد و نه زن وجود دارد، زیرا همه شما در مسیح یشوع یکی هستید، 29 و اگر از مسیح هستید، پس نسل ابراهیم هستید. (برای اطلاعات بیشتر دوازده قبیله اسرائیل را بررسی کنید) افسسیان 2:18-19 18 زیرا از طریق او هر دو به یک روح به پدر دسترسی داریم. 19 در نتیجه، شما دیگر خارجی و بیگانه نیستید، بلکه همشهری قوم خدا و اعضای خاندان خدا هستید. اول پت 2:10 زمانی شما قوم نبودید، اما اکنون قوم خدا هستید. (شما اسرائیل هستید) زمانی مورد رحمت قرار نمی گرفتید، اما اکنون مورد رحمت قرار گرفته اید. نتیجه گیری: آموزه «غیرقانون» از «نوشتههای سخت فهم» پولس برداشت کرده و آنها را به این معنا تفسیر کرده است که قوانین خدا که از طریق موسی داده شده است دیگر وجود ندارد، و با انجام این کار، آموزههای پولس را بر تعالیم یشوع و تعالیم بسیار بالاتر قرار داده است. سخنان خدا با این کار آنها یهوه، یشوا و پولس را دروغگو خطاب می کنند. یوحنا 14:23 هر که مرا دوست ندارد سخنان مرا نگاه نمی دارد. کلامی که می شنوید مال من نیست، بلکه از جانب پدری است که مرا فرستاد هر زمان که دیدیم پولس برخلاف قانون صحبت می کند، می توانید یکی از دو دسته را قرار دهید. او یا از سنت ها و آموزه های انسان ها صحبت می کند (قانون انسان)، این همان کاری است که آنها انجام دادند تا انسان را به اسارت درآورند. متی 15:9 عبادت آنها مضحک است، زیرا آنها عقاید ساخته شده توسط انسان را به عنوان دستوراتی از جانب خدا آموزش می دهند. یا از مجازات می گوید وقتی قانون را زیر پا می گذاری، اسارتی به سراغت می آید که نتیجه گناه است. این قانون گناه و مرگ است که یشوا آن را به صلیب میخکوب کرد. رومیان 8:1 بنابراین، اکنون هیچ محکومیتی برای کسانی که در مسیح هستند وجود ندارد یشوآ، 2 زیرا به وسیله مسیح یشوآ شریعت روحی که حیات می بخشد شما را از شریعت گناه و مرگ آزاد کرده است. اول قرنتیان 11: 1 شما باید از من تقلید کنید، همانطور که من از مسیح تقلید می کنم. اعمال رسولان 24:14 «اما این را برای شما اعتراف میکنم که طبق راهی که آنها فرقه میخوانند، خدای پدران خود را میپرستم و به هر آنچه در شریعت و انبیا مکتوب است ایمان دارم. رومیان 7:25 - من از یهوه سپاسگزارم - از طریق استاد ما یشوا، مسیحا! پس من خودم با ذهن به شریعت یهوه خدمت می کنم، اما با جسم قانون گناه. ● غلاطیان 3:10 همه کسانی که بر اعمال شریعت تکیه می کنند (توجه کنید که می گوید شریعت عمل می کند نه شریعت) تحت لعنت هستند. زیرا مکتوب است: «لعنت بر هر کسی که به آنچه در کتاب شریعت نوشته شده است ادامه ندهد. غلاطیان 3:13 اما مسیح ما را از لعنتی که توسط شریعت بیان شده است نجات داده است. هنگامی که او را بر صلیب آویزان کردند، لعنت به خاطر اشتباه ما را بر عهده گرفت. بر غیریهودیان در یشوا، تا بتوانیم وعده روح را از طریق ایمان دریافت کنیم. هفت قانون قانون خدا / رومیان 3:31 / قانون گناه، رومیان 7:23 قانون روح رومیان 8:2 / قانون ایمان رومیان 3:27 قانون عدالت رومیان 9:31 قانون روح مسیح: اول قرنطینه 9:21 قانون گناه و مرگ. رومیان 8:2 رومیان 8:2 و چون به او تعلق دارید، قدرت روح حیات بخش شما را از قدرت گناهی که به مرگ می انجامد، رها کرده است. 2 زیرا در مسیح یشوا، شریعت روح حیات، شما را از شریعت گناه و مرگ آزاد کرده است.

  • Passover | Answers 4 Saints

    Is Easter pagan? The great Easter fraud Passover Passover (Pesach) is one of the most God mandated Jewish holidays, with several core observances explicitly required by God in the Torah (primarily in Exodus 12–13, Leviticus 23, Numbers 9, and Deuteronomy 16). These are considered divine commandments (mitzvot) rather than later rabbinic customs. Here are the main ones that are directly commanded in the Torah: Remove all leaven (chametz) from your home — On the first day (and for the full seven days), you must eliminate yeast/leavened products entirely. Eating leavened bread during the seven days is forbidden, with severe penalties mentioned (e.g., being "cut off" from the people). (Exodus 12:15–20; 13:7) Eat unleavened bread (matzah) — For seven days, eat only matzah. Specifically, there is a positive commandment to eat matzah on the first night of Passover. (Exodus 12:15, 18, 20; Deuteronomy 16:3, 8) Observe the festival for seven days — The first and seventh days (in the Diaspora, first, second, seventh, and eighth) are holy convocations with no work allowed (except food preparation). (Exodus 12:16; Leviticus 23:6–8) Tell the story of the Exodus — You must recount the events of the deliverance from Egypt to your children on that night. This is the basis for the Haggadah's storytelling. (Exodus 12:26–27; 13:8, 14; Deuteronomy 6:20–25) Eat bitter herbs (maror) — In the original biblical command, this was part of the Passover meal with the sacrificial lamb. (Exodus 12:8) The Passover sacrifice (Korban Pesach) — In Temple times, a lamb or goat was sacrificed on the 14th of Nisan at twilight, eaten roasted that night with matzah and bitter herbs, with strict rules (no bones broken, not taken outside the house, etc.). This is central in Exodus 12 but cannot be performed today without the Temple. (Exodus 12:3–11, 21–27; Numbers 9:1–14) Other elements like the four cups of wine, the Seder plate's full setup (karpas, charoset, etc.), reclining, or specific Haggadah readings are important Jewish customs (minhagim) developed over centuries in rabbinic tradition to fulfill or enhance the biblical commands—but they are not explicitly required in the Torah itself. The holiday commemorates the Exodus from Egypt, the "passing over" of Israelite homes during the tenth plague, and freedom from slavery. Observance is an eternal statute commanded by God (Exodus 12:14, 17, 24). In modern practice (without the Temple), the focus is on matzah, maror, removing chametz, the Seder retelling, and resting on the holy days. Many Jews today emphasize these biblical requirements while incorporating rich traditional customs. Must watch Monti Judah Passover The Passover Seder Passover (Pesach) is one of the most biblically mandated Jewish holidays, with several core observances explicitly required by God in the Torah (primarily in Exodus 12–13, Leviticus 23, Numbers 9, and Deuteronomy 16). These are considered divine commandments (mitzvot) rather than later rabbinic customs. Here are the main ones that are directly commanded in the Torah: 1. Remove all leaven (chametz) from your home —On the first day (and for the full seven days), you must eliminate yeast/leavened products entirely. Eating leavened bread during the seven days is forbidden, with severe penalties mentioned (e.g., being "cut off" from the people). (Exodus 12:15–20; 13:7) 2.Eat unleavened bread (matzah) — For seven days, eat only matzah. Specifically, there is a positive commandment to eat matzah on the first night of Passover. (Exodus 12:15, 18, 20; Deuteronomy 16:3, 8) 3.Observe the festival for seven days — The first and seventh days (in the Diaspora, first, second, seventh, and eighth) are holy convocations with no work allowed (except food preparation). (Exodus 12:16; Leviticus 23:6–8) 4.Tell the story of the Exodus — You must recount the events of the deliverance from Egypt to your children on that night. This is the basis for the Haggadah's storytelling. (Exodus 12:26–27; 13:8, 14; Deuteronomy 6:20–25) 5. Eat bitter herbs (maror) — In the original biblical command, this was part of the Passover meal with the sacrificial lamb. (Exodus 12:8) 6.The Passover sacrifice (Korban Pesach) — In Temple times, a lamb or goat was sacrificed on the 14th of Nisan at twilight, eaten roasted that night with matzah and bitter herbs, with strict rules (no bones broken, not taken outside the house, etc.).

In modern practice (without the Temple), the focus is on matzah, maror, removing chametz, the Seder retelling, and resting on the holy days. Many Jews today emphasize these biblical requirements while incorporating rich traditional customs. סֵדֶר, meaning "order" in Hebrew) is the central ritual of Passover (Pesach). It's a festive, interactive family meal held on the first night (or first two nights outside Israel) of the holiday. The purpose is to fulfill the biblical commandment to tell the story of the Exodus from Egypt to your children and household (Exodus 13:8), reliving the journey from slavery to freedom as if we ourselves were liberated. The Seder follows a structured order laid out in the Haggadah ( the special book used for the evening), which includes prayers, blessings, songs, symbolic foods, discussions, and the retelling of the Exodus story. It typically lasts 2–4 hours (or longer in some homes), blending serious reflection, joy, food, wine, and family participation. Key Elements on the Table Before diving into the steps, here's what you usually see: Seder plate (with symbolic items): Maror (bitter herbs, like horseradish) → bitterness of slavery Chazeret (another bitter vegetable, often romaine lettuce) Zeroa (shank bone or roasted chicken neck) → Passover sacrifice Beitzah (roasted egg) → mourning for the Temple / new life Karpas (green vegetable, like parsley or celery) → spring/renewal Charoset (sweet mixture of apples, nuts, wine) → mortar used by slaves Matzah (three or more unleavened breads, often in a cover) Salt water (for dipping karpas, symbolizing tears of slavery) Four cups of wine (or grape juice) → represent four expressions of redemption Exodus 21 Then Moses called all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs for yourselves according to your clans, and kill the Passover lamb. 22 Take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that is in the basin , and touch the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. None of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. 23 For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians, and when he sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses to strike you. 24 You shall observe this rite as a statute for you and for your sons forever. 25 And when you come to the land that the Lord will give you, as he has promised, you shall keep this service. 26 And when your children say to you, ‘What do you mean by this service?’ 27 you shall say, ‘It is the sacrifice of the Lord’s Passover, for he passed over the houses of the people of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians but spared our houses.’” And the people bowed their heads and worshiped. 28 Then the people of Israel went and did so; as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did. The Tenth Plague: Death of the Firstborn 29 At midnight the Lord struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of the livestock. 30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians. And there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where someone was not dead. 31 Then he summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, “Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as you have said. 32 Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone, and bless me also!” The Exodus 33 The Egyptians were urgent with the people to send them out of the land in haste. For they said, “We shall all be dead.” 34 So the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading bowls being bound up in their cloaks on their shoulders. 35 The people of Israel had also done as Moses told them, for they had asked the Egyptians for silver and gold jewelry and for clothing. 36 And the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. Thus they plundered the Egyptians. 37 And the people of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. 38 A mixed multitude also went up with them, and very much livestock, both flocks and herds. 39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough that they had brought out of Egypt, for it was not leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared any provisions for themselves. 40 The time that the people of Israel lived in Egypt was 430 years. 41 At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. 42 It was a night of watching by the Lord, to bring them out of the land of Egypt; so this same night is a night of watching kept to the Lord by all the people of Israel throughout their generations. Institution of the Passover 43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner shall eat of it, 44 but every slave b that is bought for money may eat of it after you have circumcised him. 45 No foreigner or hired worker may eat of it. 46 It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and you shall not break any of its bones. 47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 If a stranger shall sojourn with you and would keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised. Then he may come near and keep it; he shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. 49 There shall be one law for the native and for the stranger who sojourns among you.” 50 All the people of Israel did just as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron. 51 And on that very day the Lord brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their hosts.

  • Are you a Christian | Answers 4 Saints

    Are you a REAL Christian? The Christianity of the new testament doesn't exist There was only one person in the entire Bible (Torah) that did everything correctly you proclaim to follow Him however you live and do the opposite. He said if you love me keep my commandments, but you don't Christ said: If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” …Matthew 19:16 God cannot stand the prayers of anyone who disobeys his Law. Proverbs 28:9 If God's laws mean nothing to you You mean nothing to God But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’Matthew 7:23 All Israel will be saved If you do the things God hates and refuse to keep His commandments, you will receive the mark of the beast (Your Father the Devil) not the mark of God. “Shout with the voice of a trumpet blast. Shout aloud! Don’t be timid. Tell my people Israel of their sins! Isaiah 58:1 Yeshua is Our Advocate …3By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments. 4If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:… Christianity the New Religion The Final Takeaway Yeshua didn't leave behind a selective checklist where people get to pick and choose which laws to follow. He left a narrow path. This test leaves absolutely no room for casual religion or intellectual debates. Yeshua didn't leave behind a philosophy to be discussed; He left a narrow path to be walked. If the answers point to a life of compromise, it isn't a cue to just feel guilty or give up—it is a direct, urgent call to repent. It means turning away from the ways of the world, picking up the truth of the Torah that Yeshua lived out, and making the firm decision to let your hands, your mind, and your daily life reflect the Master you claim to follow. If people claim to belong to Him but they refuse to live as He lived, keep what He kept, and honor the Torah the way He did, they are practicing lawlessness. True faith is not found in the empty rituals of those who rewrite His words—it is found in literal, active obedience to the Master. According to the New Testament, merely claiming to a Christian and follow the Messiah is not the same as actually following Him. Yeshua said : "And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" (Luke 6:46) And: "If ye love me, keep my commandments." (John 14:15) The apostle John wrote: "And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." (1 John 2:3–4) From this perspective, a person who continually refuses to follow the Messiah's teachings while professing faith creates a contradiction between their profession and their actions. However, many Christians would distinguish between: A believer who struggles with sin but desires to obey God and repents when they fail. A person who knowingly rejects God's commands and has no intention of obeying them. The New Testament repeatedly calls believers to repentance, faith, and obedience, while also recognizing that believers are not sinless and may stumble (1 John 1:8–9). So, if someone completely refuses to follow the Messiah and His commandments, many would argue that Scripture calls into question whether that person's profession of faith is genuine. Passages such as Matthew 7:21–23, Luke 6:46, and 1 John 2:3–4 are often cited in that discussion. The core biblical test is not what a person calls themselves, but whether their life shows faith expressed through obedience to God. How to Find Out Which Religion Is Right (It’s Easier Than You Think) Our Lord again reminds us that the manifestation of our love for Him will be in our obedience to His commands. Keeping Christ's commandments is and always has been the best test of our love for Yeshua Children of God Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. Ezekiel 36:27 This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. 1 John 4:1 And For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. Romans 8:1 1 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. 3 And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure. 4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 5 You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him, there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. 7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. brother. My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer me who lives, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20 God's seal is not a physical mark The forehead represents the mind of those who make a conscious decision to obey God's requirements to receive His seal will protect us from the last seven plagues. The Mark of God is a sign of obedience between God and His faithful Thus the Sabbath is the sign of a relationship between God and His people, serving as "a test of their loyalty to Him" Yeshua is the LORD of the Sabbath, not Sunday and they get the Mark of God will escape the plages. We are sealed by the Holy Spirit. Is a characteristic of people who have surrendered their lives to God God's seal is in His laws. Bind up the testimonies and seal the law among my disciples. God's sign is His seal, the words sing and seal are interchangeable in the bible. The Sabbath is God's sign, The Sabbath is the seventh day of the week. The fourth commandment is to remember the Sabbath. There is not one scripture in the entire Bible changing the Sabbath to Sunday. Its a sign of God's authority He chose the day. There are three elements to a legal seal, The seal giver His title His territory The Great Commission The Great Commission is Jesus's final instruction to his disciples before his ascension, found in Matthew 28:19-20. The passage says, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." This is not just a suggestion, but a command for all who follow Him. Why It Is Considered a Sin A Command, Not a Suggestion: The Bible frames this as a clear directive. A sin is defined as "missing the mark" or an act of disobedience against God's will. Willfully ignoring a direct command from Jesus is therefore considered a sinful act. The Nature of a Disciple: In Christian belief, a true disciple isn't just a follower, but a learner and a reproducer. The biblical understanding is that a disciple of Jesus should naturally want to share their faith and help others become disciples, just as they were discipled. A Christian who has no desire to make disciples may be demonstrating a lack of genuine conversion or a spiritual selfishness that is contrary to the self-sacrificial nature of Christ. Sins of Omission: The Bible teaches that sin isn't only about doing something wrong (sins of commission) but also about failing to do something you know you should do (sins of omission). Not making disciples falls squarely into this category. It's an act of neglecting a divinely ordained responsibility. While a Christian's salvation isn't based on their ability to make disciples, their obedience to this command is seen as evidence of their faith and love for God and others. For many, a failure to engage in this work points to a deeper spiritual issue, such as fear, a lack of trust in God's power, or a love for oneself more than for others. There is now one single law that rules both Jew and Greek alike: The law of faith (Romans 3:27) The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:2) The law of Christ = love God and love your neighbor, fulfilled by the Spirit (Galatians 5:14; 6:2; Romans 13:8–10) One God. One Messiah. One gospel. One law for Jews and Greeks: faith in the crucified and risen Jesus. That is why Paul can say in the very next breath after “neither Jew nor Greek”: “You are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:28–29). Same promise. Same inheritance. Same law. No exceptions. No special tracks.

    The statement " God gives His Spirit to those who keep His commandments" is a core theological concept, emphasizing that obedience to God's commands is a sign of love and a means by which His Spirit empowers believers to live a life pleasing to Him. Acts 5:32 Romans 8:9, he writes: "But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all". Self-Test The Examination of Faith: A Self-Test Scriptural Requirements for Salvation. "Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith.It asks: Is my faith a living, breathing part of who I am, or am I just going through the motions?Test yourselves..." — 2 Corinthians 13:5 He wants us to find out now, in the quiet of our own prayer lives, if we are operating in the flesh or the Spirit—rather than standing before Him on Judgement Day only to hear the words, "I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness" (Matthew 7:23). The Line in the Sand Scriptural Assessment There is no gray area, no partial alignment, and no grading on a curve. In the economy of God's Kingdom, you are either a submissive subject or an active rebel. Your daily actions, your handling of His instructions, and the fruit of your lifestyle are the evidence that will either vindicate you or convict you. Use this 15-point diagnostic to weigh your walk under the light of the written Word. Test 1: The Benchmark of Gathering "He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad." — Matthew 12:30 The Question: Are your daily choices, your lifestyle, and the traditions you practice actively gathering people into covenant obedience to God's instructions, or are your actions scattering them away into compromise, lawlessness 1 John 3:4, and worldly customs? By saying "He who is not with Me is against Me," He eliminated any possibility of a "neutral ground." In a spiritual war, sitting on the fence is not an option. If you are not actively working for the Kingdom of Light, your existence naturally serves the Kingdom of Darkness. Are your daily choices, your lifestyle, and the traditions you practice actively gathering people into covenant obedience to God's instructions, or are your actions scattering them away into compromise, lawlessness, and worldly customs? Your Answer: [ ] YES, I am gathering / [ ] NO, I am scattering Test 2: The Benchmark of the Spirit "And we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him." — Acts 5:32 The Question: Does the spirit inside you cause you to humbly submit to and keep the Father's commandments (Ezekiel 36:27), or does it make excuses, calling obedience "legalism" while clinging to man-made traditions? (God only gives His true Spirit to those who obey Him). Your Answer: [ ] YES, it leads to obedience / [ ] NO, it rejects His law Test 3: The Benchmark of Truth "He who says, 'I know Him,' and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." — 1 John 2:4 The Question: When confronted with the plain instructions of Scripture, do you lay your life down flat to align with them, or do you pretend to know God through a mere "feeling" or traditional heritage while ignoring His laws? Your Answer: [ ] YES, the truth is in me / [ ] NO, I am deceiving myself Test 4: The Benchmark of Love "By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." — John 13:35 The Question: Is your life marked by genuine, sacrificial love and service toward the brethren who walk in the truth, or is it hindered by pride, malice, or division? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 5: The Benchmark of Fruit "Every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit... Therefore by their fruits you will know them." — Matthew 7:17, 20 The Question: Does the daily output of your life consistently produce the supernatural fruit of the Spirit—patience, kindness, goodness, and self-control—or do you still bear the bitter fruit of the flesh? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 6: The Benchmark of the Tongue "If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless." — James 1:26 The Question: Is your speech ruled by scriptural self-control, or is your tongue unbridled—frequently given over to anger, gossip, profane language, or tearing others down? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 7: The Benchmark of Separation "Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him." — 1 John 2:15 The Question: Have you consciously set yourself apart from worldly entertainment, fleshly standards, and pagan-rooted traditions because you love the Father more than the culture? Jeremiah 10:43 For the customs of the peoples are worthless; they cut down a tree from the forest; it is shaped with a chisel by the hands of a craftsman. 4 They adorn it with silver and gold and fasten it with hammer and nails, so that it will not totter. Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 8: The Benchmark of Action "But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves." — James 1:22 The Question: When you discover a direct command or truth written in the Scriptures, do you immediately adjust your life to execute it, or do you simply listen to it and remain unchanged? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 9: The Benchmark of Sovereignty "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other... You cannot serve God and mammon (money)." — Matthew 6:24 The Question: Does the Almighty possess total authority over how you acquire, manage, and distribute your financial resources, or does the pursuit of wealth, security, and personal comfort govern your choices? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 10: The Benchmark of Mercy "He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker, but he who honors Him has mercy on the needy." — Proverbs 14:31 The Question: Do you actively demonstrate compassion, care, and tangible help to the poor, weak, or distressed when it is within your power to do so?

Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser..." — Proverbs 9:8-9 The Question: When another believer brings scriptural correction to expose an error or a sin in your walk, do you receive it with humility and appreciation, or do you respond with anger, pride, and self-defense? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 12: The Benchmark of Humility "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble... Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up." — James 4:6, 10 The Question: Are you genuinely willing to take the lowest seat, serve without recognition, and prioritize God's reputation above your own ego and the desire to be right? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 13: The Benchmark of Endurance "But he who endures to the end shall be saved." — Matthew 24:13 The Question: Do you remain steadfast in obeying God's truth when trials, persecution, or family rejection come against you, or do you compromise your walk to escape friction or pressure? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 14: The Benchmark of Pure Worship "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." — John 4:24 The Question: Do you worship God strictly according to the clean parameters defined in His Word, or do you try to honor Him using methods, calendars, and celebrations adopted from pagan cultures? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO Test 15: The Benchmark of Fear of Man "The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever treats the Lord shall be safe." — Proverbs 29:25 The Question: Is your ultimate goal to please the Master regardless of public opinion, or do you alter your speech, actions, and scriptural standards to seek the approval and validation of human beings? Your Answer: [ ] YES / [ ] NO ⚖️ Evaluating the Results If you answered YES to all 15: You are With God. Your eyes and ears have been opened by a soft heart, and the true Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) is operating inside you, giving you the supernatural power and desire to walk in His covenant statutes (Ezekiel 36:27). If you answered NO to any of them: You are Against God. This is the definition of spiritual blindness. By rejecting the light of His instructions in favor of your own comfort or man-made religious traditions, you have closed your own eyes. If you persist in this state, God will eventually confirm you in that darkness, making it so you can no longer hear or see the truth. "Choose this day whom you will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." — Joshua 24:15

    The good news is that Yehovah ordained Yeshua to announce the coming of His kingdom here on earth. Many would be shocked to find out that the Bible defines the gospel differently than what they have always been told. A thorough reading shows He brought and that the apostles continued to preach. The True Gospel e The spiritual path begins with a direct call from Yeshua: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. ” This imperative is the doorway to salvation—a foundational, inward shift away from sin and a fallen world, and a redirection of the heart toward the sovereign authority of God. Matthew 4:17 — “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, ‘Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.’” Mark 1:15 — “And saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.’” 2. The Doorway: Water Baptism and the Holy Spiri t Following the resurrection and ascension of Yeshua, Peter declared the active steps of covenant entry at Pentecost: turning in repentance, being buried with Messiah in baptism, and receiving divine empowerment through the Spirit. Acts 2:38 — “Then Peter said unto them, ‘Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.’” John 3:5 — “Jesus answered, ‘Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.’” 3. The Blood: Grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel By the blood shed on the tree, the dividing wall of hostility was torn down. Nations once alienated from the promises and covenants are brought near and grafted as wild olive branches into the root of Israel. Ephesians 2:12–13 — “That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: But now in Yesgua messiah ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.” Romans 11:17 — “A nd if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree.” 4. The Commission: Gathering Others into the Harvest Salvation is not walked in isolation; a grafted branch bears fruit. Believers are commanded to act as fishers of men and ambassadors, working to gather the lost into the Father’s house before the end. Matthew 28:19–20 — “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.” Matthew 9:37–38 — “Then saith he unto his disciples, ‘The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.’” Luke 14:23 — “And the lord said unto the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.’” 5. The Perseverance: Holding Fast Until the End The culmination of salvation requires endurance through trials, testing, and persecution. The promise of the eternal crown belongs to those who do not turn back. Matthew 24:13 — “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Hebrews 10:35–36 — “Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.” Revelation 2:25–26 — “But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations.” انجیل حقیقی یشوآ در هیچ جای کتاب مقدس نمی گوید که انجیل درباره آمدن او برای مرگ برای گناهان ما است. یشوآ چه موعظه کرد؟ خیلی ها وقتی بفهمند که کتاب مقدس انجیل را متفاوت از آنچه همیشه به آنها گفته شده است، تعجب می کند. مطالعه کامل نشان میدهد که پذیرش خون مسیح در پرداخت گناهانمان - به همان اندازه که اساساً مهم است - در واقع تمرکز "مژدهای" نیست که او آورد و رسولان به موعظه خود ادامه دادند. یشوآ علاوه بر مرگ برای گناهان ما، به عنوان رسولی از جانب یهوه پدر به زمین آمد: خبر خوب این است که یَهُوَه یشوآ را مقرر کرد تا آمدن پادشاهی خود را در اینجا بر روی زمین اعلام کند. یوحنا 8:38 من از آنچه نزد پدر خود دیدهام سخن میگویم، و شما آنچه را از پدر خود شنیدهاید انجام دهید.» یوحنا 12:49-50 زیرا من به اختیار خود صحبت نکردهام، بلکه پدری که مرا فرستاده است به من فرمان داده است که چه بگویم و چه بگویم. 50 و می دانم که فرمان او حیات جاودانی است. پس آنچه می گویم، همان گونه که پدر به من گفته است، می گویم.» یوحنا 14:24 هر که مرا دوست ندارد سخنان مرا نگاه نمی دارد. و کلامی که می شنوید مال من نیست، بلکه پدرانی است که مرا فرستادند. لوقا 4:43 یشوع به آنها گفت: «من باید پادشاهی یهوه را به مردم موعظه کنم. شهرهای دیگر نیز، زیرا برای این منظور فرستاده شده ام». در حالی که یشوا به طور قطع مهمترین فردی بود که تا به حال در این زمین راه میرفت، کتاب مقدس به وضوح نشان میدهد که انجیل ارائه شده توسط یشوا صرفاً در مورد خودش نبود. سخنان او را بخوانید و خودتان این را ثابت کنید: متی 9:35 یوشع در تمام شهرها و روستاها رفت و در کنیسه های آنها تعلیم داد و انجیل ملکوت را موعظه کرد و هر بیماری و بیماری را شفا داد. 36 چون جماعت را دید، بر آنان دلسوزی کرد، زیرا آنان مانند گوسفندان بی شبان، آزار و اذیت و درمانده بودند. مرقس 1:14-15 پس از زندانی شدن یحیی، یشوع به جلیل آمد و موعظه کرد. انجیل ملکوت خدا، و گفت: "زمان به پایان رسیده است، و ملکوت خدا نزدیک است. توبه کنید و به انجیل ایمان بیاورید." 43 لوقا 8:1 پس از آن واقع شد که یشوع در تمام شهرها و روستاها رفت و موعظه کرد و مژده [انجیل] پادشاهی خدا را آورد. لوقا 16:16 شریعت و انبیا تا یوحنا بودند. از آن زمان پادشاهی خدا موعظه شده است و همه به آن فشار می آورند. متی 24:14 و گذشتن آسمان و زمین آسانتر از شکست دادن یک جزء شریعت است. و این انجیل ملکوت در تمام جهان به عنوان شاهدی برای همه ملتها موعظه خواهد شد و آنگاه پایان فرا خواهد رسید. اعلان «بشارت» - بهترین خبری که امروز شنیده میشود - که پدر از طریق یشوآ داد، درباره استقرار پادشاهی او بر روی زمین بود. پادشاهی چیست؟ اساساً یک ملت است، با تمام شهروندان، سرزمین و قوانینش که توسط یک دولت اداره می شود. در استفاده از کتاب مقدس، پادشاهی همچنین می تواند به معنای خانواده ای از یک پدر و مادر باشد که به یک ملت تبدیل شده است. یک پادشاهی دارای چهار عنصر اساسی است: یک پادشاه، حاکم عالی، یا عامل حاکم؛ قلمرو، با موقعیت خاص و خطوط مرزی مشخص. افراد یا شهروندان در آن صلاحیت سرزمینی؛ و قوانین و شکلی از حکومت که از طریق آن اراده حاکم اعمال می شود. اگر یکی از این عناصر اساسی را نادیده بگیریم - اگر پیامی را که یشوع از طرف پدر آورده است نادیده بگیریم - ایمانی تحریف شده خواهیم داشت، ایمانی که رستگاری نمی آورد. چه کسی پادشاه خواهد شد؟ هیچ شکی وجود ندارد که پادشاه پادشاهی خدا یشوا خواهد بود. حتی اگر او هیچ قدرت مدنی را در زمان روی زمین اعمال نکرد، پس از بازگشت، او "پادشاه پادشاهان و خداوند ارباب" خواهد بود. اول تیموتائوس 6:15. مکاشفه 19:16; 17:14). سایر انبیا نیز در مورد پادشاهی که نه فقط اسرائیل و یهودا، بلکه در سراسر جهان خواهد آمد، پیشگویی کردند. اشعیا به ما می گوید: زیرا برای ما فرزندی متولد شد، به ما پسری عطا شد. و حکومت بر دوش او خواهد بود. و نام او شگفت انگیز، مشاور، خدای توانا، پدر جاودان، شاهزاده صلح خوانده خواهد شد. افزایش حکومت و صلح او پایانی نخواهد داشت، بر تاج و تخت داوود و بر پادشاهی او، که از آن زمان به بعد، حتی برای همیشه، آن را با قضاوت و عدالت برقرار کند. غیرت یهوه صبایوت این را انجام خواهد داد. (اشعیا 9: 6-7) پادشاهی کجا ایجاد خواهد شد؟ باطل غالبی که شیطان بر بشر تحمیل کرده است، این باور است که روح فرد پس از مرگ به بهشت می رود. بسیاری از مردم تصور می کنند که عبارت پادشاهی خدا مترادف با بهشت است، اما کتاب مقدس تعلیم می دهد که وقتی یشوآ بازگردد، پادشاهی خدا بر روی زمین برقرار خواهد شد! ابتدا، توجه کنید که چگونه کتاب مقدس مفهوم «رفتن به بهشت» پس از مرگ را کاملاً رد می کند. پطرس در روز پنطیکاست به جمعیت می گوید: «ای برادران، اجازه دهید آزادانه درباره داوود پدرسالار با شما صحبت کنم که او هم مرده و هم دفن شده است و آرامگاه او تا امروز با ماست. .. زیرا داوود به آسمان بالا نرفت" (اعمال رسولان 2: 29، 34). این "مرد بر اساس دل خود خدا" در بهشت نیست، اما هنوز در قبر است! نجات دهنده ما این را تأیید می کند. یوحنا 3:13: "هیچ کس به آسمان عروج نکرده است مگر آنکه از آسمان نازل شد، یعنی پسر انسان که در آسمان است." جامعه 9:5،10 قدیسان مرده عهد عتیق و جدید به طور یکسان در قبرهای خود خوابیده اند و در انتظار رستاخیز هستند - بدون آگاهی. ایوب 14:14-15 ایوب انتظار برای رستاخیز را این گونه توصیف می کند: "اگر مردی بمیرد، آیا دوباره زنده می شود؟ تمام روزهای خدمت سخت خود را منتظر خواهم ماند تا تغییر من بیاید. شما تماس خواهید گرفت و من خواهم گفت. جواب شما. مکاشفه 5:10، "و آنها را پادشاهی (نژاد سلطنتی) و کاهنان خدای ما قرار دادی و آنها بر روی زمین سلطنت خواهند کرد." مکاشفه 11:15 سپس فرشته هفتم به صدا در آمد: و صداهای بلند در آسمان بود که می گفت: "پادشاهی های این جهان پادشاهی یهوه ما و پسرش شده است و او تا ابدالاباد سلطنت خواهد کرد." مکاشفه 21:21. و آسمانی جدید و زمینی جدید دیدم، زیرا آسمان اول و زمین اول از دنیا رفتند. همچنین دیگر دریا وجود نداشت. آنگاه من، یوحنا، شهر مقدس، اورشلیم جدید را دیدم که از جانب خدا از آسمان نازل میشد و مانند عروسی که برای شوهرش آراسته شده بود، آماده شده بود. و صدای بلندی از آسمان شنیدم که می گفت: "اینک، خیمه خدا با مردم است و او با آنها ساکن خواهد شد و آنها قوم او خواهند بود. خود خدا با آنها خواهد بود و خدای آنها خواهد بود. و خدا محو خواهد کرد. هر اشکی را از چشمانشان دور کن، نه مرگ، نه اندوه، و نه گریه، دیگر هیچ دردی نخواهد بود، زیرا چیزهای قبلی از بین رفته اند. … مکاشفه 21:1 هر که پیروز می شود وارث همه چیز خواهد بود و من خدای او خواهم بود و او پسر من خواهد بود. "رعیت ها و شهروندان پادشاهی چه کسانی هستند؟ حتی اگر یشوع پادشاهی را در سراسر جهان برپا کند، بر تمام جهان حکومت خواهد کرد. روی زمین، همه افراد روی زمین شهروند آن پادشاهی نخواهند بود، همه تابع پادشاه پادشاهان خواهند بود، اما همه وارد آن پادشاهی روحانی نخواهند شد. یوحنا 3:3 یشوع این حقیقت را به نیقودیموس فاش کرد. هنگامی که نیقودیموس شبانه نزد او آمد، یشوع به او گفت: "به یقین به تو می گویم، اگر کسی دوباره متولد نشود، نمی تواند ملکوت خدا را ببیند." اول قرنتیان 15:50. پولس به قرنتیان گفت: "گوشت و خون [انسان های فانی] نمی توانند ملکوت خدا را به ارث ببرند؛ و فساد وارث فساد نیست." در حالی که ما بدنی جسمانی و از گوشت و خون داریم، ممکن است وارث ملکوت باشیم، اما نمی توانیم وارد شویم. به طور کامل به ملکوت میرویم، و نمیتوانیم آن را ببینیم، تا زمانی که روح شویم - بدنی باشکوه که در رستاخیز از روح تشکیل شده است. این بدان معنی است که، حتی اگر همه بشریت تابع ملکوتی باشند که یشوع بر روی زمین حکومت خواهد کرد، آنها لزوماً بخشی از آن نخواهند بود. متی 25:31-34 هنگامی که پسر انسان در جلال خود و تمامی فرشتگان مقدس با او بیاید، آنگاه بر تخت جلال خود خواهد نشست. جمیع امتها در حضور او جمع خواهند شد و او آنها را از یکدیگر جدا خواهد کرد، همانطور که شبان گوسفندان خود را از بزها جدا میکند. و گوسفندها را در دست راست خود خواهد گذاشت و بزها را در سمت چپ. آنگاه پادشاه به کسانی که در دست راست خود هستند خواهد گفت: «ای برکتهای پدر من بیایید، پادشاهی را که از ابتدا برای شما آماده شده است به ارث ببرید.» پس پادشاهی خدا توسط یشوع اداره خواهد شد و کسانی که پس از زنده شدن از مردگان جلال یافته اند به ارث خواهند رسید. مقدسین رستاخیز شده - شهروندان ملکوت خدا - همراه با آنها حکومت خواهند کرد یشوآ بر مردمان باقیمانده زمین (دانیال 7:27؛ دوم تیموتائوس 2:12؛ مکاشفه 2:26-28؛ 5:9-10؛ 20:4-6؛ 22:5). قوانین پادشاهی چیست؟ داوران 21:25. قانون صرفاً راهنمایی برای مردم است تا از انسجام، توافق و صلح در روابط مدنی و بین فردی پیروی کنند. بدون یک معیار درک شده، که توسط یک حاکم مقتدر اجرا می شود، هر کس مطابق میل یا میل خود عمل می کند و هیچ چیز خوب یا با ارزشی تولید نمی شود. پادشاهی خدا نیز تفاوتی ندارد. اول قرنتیان 14:33 خدا پدید آورنده سردرگمی نیست. پادشاهی او صلح آمیز و منظم خواهد بود، زیرا هر کسی که وارد آن شود، داوطلبانه خود را تسلیم قانون - احکام - خدا خواهد کرد. خدا کسی را در پادشاهی خود نخواهد داشت که با الگوی زندگی خود نشان دهد که از او اطاعت نخواهد کرد. (متی 7:21-23؛ عبرانیان 10:26-31). مکاشفه 12:17 مقدسین را کسانی توصیف میکند که «احکام خدا را نگاه میدارند و شهادت یشوع را دارند. این دو عبارت - دوست داشتن خدا و دوست داشتن همسایه مانند خود - به ترتیب چهار فرمان اول و شش فرمان آخر را در بر می گیرد. احکام صرفاً چگونگی دوست داشتن خدا و عشق به انسان را بیشتر تعریف می کنند. ما به طور کلی خدا را با قرار دادن او در اولویت قرار دادن او، با استفاده نکردن از کمک های بدنی در پرستش او، با بیهوده نبردن نام او و با مقدس نگه داشتن روز هفتم سبت دوست داریم. ما انسان را به طور کلی با احترام به پدر و مادر، نه قتل، نه زنا، نه دزدی، نه دروغ گفتن و نه طمع دوست داریم. یوحنا 14:15 "اگر مرا دوست دارید، احکام مرا نگاه دارید. "کسی که احکام من را دارد و آنها را نگاه می دارد، اوست که مرا دوست دارد. خودم به او." "اگر کسی مرا دوست بدارد، کلام مرا نگاه خواهد داشت و پدرم او را دوست خواهد داشت و ما نزد او خواهیم آمد و خانه خود را با او خواهیم ساخت. مال من نیست، بلکه از آن پدرانی است که مرا فرستادند.» The Gospel (in Hebrew, the Besorah—"good news") that Yeshua (Jesus) personally preached is summarized in Mark 1:14–15: "Now after John was put in prison, Yeshua came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, 'The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.'" While modern ears often hear "the gospel" defined exclusively as the mechanics of individual salvation (how to go to heaven when you die), Yeshua’s proclamation was broader, deeper, and grounded in the Hebrew Scriptures: the Gospel of the Kingdom of God (Besorat HaMalkhut). He announced that the sovereign rule, authority, and covenant reign of the Creator had broken directly into this fallen world through the King Himself. 1. "The Time is Fulfilled" (Prophetic Arrival) When Yeshua said the time was fulfilled, He was speaking to a nation longing for deliverance. The prophecies of Daniel (the timeline of Daniel 9 and the stone that crushes the kingdoms of the world in Daniel 2) and Isaiah were reaching their climax. In Luke 4:18–19, He opened the scroll of Isaiah 61 in the Nazareth synagogue to define His mandate: Preaching good tidings to the poor and humble. Healing the brokenhearted. Proclaiming liberty to the captives and the opening of prison to those who are bound. Proclaiming the acceptable year of the Lord (the ultimate Jubilee release from sin and debt). 2. "The Kingdom of God is at Hand" (The Core Proclamation) Yeshua did not preach an abstract philosophy; He preached an active government and reign: Sovereignty over the Kingdom of Darkness: Every time Yeshua cast out a demon, healed incurable diseases, or raised the dead, He was demonstrating that Satan’s usurpation of the earth was being overthrown. "If I cast out demons by the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you" (Luke 11:20). The Nature of the King’s Reign: His kingdom was not of this worldly system—it did not advance through political intrigue, violence, or human armies (John 18:36). Instead, it advanced through truth, sacrificial love, humility, and righteousness. Present and Future: The Kingdom is already here in the hearts and walk of those who submit to the King, and it is yet to come in its physical, global fullness when the King returns to establish His reign in Jerusalem (Zechariah 14; Revelation 11:15). 3. "Repent" (Teshuvah — A Complete Return) To enter this Kingdom, the requirement was not a passive intellectual nod, but Teshuvah—a radical turning around: Turning from Self-Rule to God's Rule: Repentance means laying down rebellion, secular autonomy, and false religious pretenses. Internalizing the Commandments: In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5–7), Yeshua explained the constitution of the Kingdom. He made it clear that He did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, but to fill them to the full (Matthew 5:17). Kingdom repentance goes beyond external legalism to the motives of the heart—eradicating lust, hatred, pride, and greed. Fruit of Repentance: Just as John the Baptist warned, Yeshua taught that true repentance always bears observable, righteous fruit (Matthew 7:16–21). 4. "Believe in the Good News" (Covenant Faith & Allegiance) In the biblical mindset, "belief" (emunah) is not merely agreeing that God exists; it is active loyalty, trust, and obedience to the King: Trusting the Father’s Provision: Ceasing to worry about food, drink, and clothing like the nations do, but rather "seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you" (Matthew 6:33). Trusting the Sacrifice of the Son: Yeshua taught that He came "not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many" (Mark 10:45). The Good News is that the King took the curse of our disobedience upon Himself at Passover, shedding His blood to ratify the New Covenant (Matthew 26:28). Victory Over the Grave: Yeshua promised that whoever hears His word and believes Him who sent Him has passed from death into life (John 5:24), anchored by His own resurrection as the firstfruits from the dead. 5. Summary: What Entering the Gospel Requires In Yeshua's own words, walking in the Gospel means: Denying Self: "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me" (Luke 9:23). Obeying the Father's Will: "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven" (Matthew 7:21). Loving God and Neighbor: Loving the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and loving your neighbor as yourself (Mark 12:29–31). Proclaiming the Kingdom to All Nations: "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come" (Matthew 24:14). In short, the Gospel Yeshua taught is the royal proclamation that God’s reign has arrived in His Messiah, calling every human heart to turn away from sin, enter covenant peace with the Father through the Son, and live as an obedient citizen of His eternal Kingdom. In ancient kingdoms, when a king ascended his throne, he issued a royal charter or legal code declaring how his realm would be governed and what was expected of his subjects. In Matthew 5–7, Yeshua goes up on a mountain—echoing Moses ascending Mount Sinai—sits down in the posture of a reigning king and teacher, and delivers the manifesto of His newly inaugurated reign. The Sermon on the Mount is not an impractical, idealistic philosophy, nor is it a checklist to earn salvation. It is the living, practical constitution of the Kingdom of God, dictating the character, inner motives, ethics, and daily allegiance required of every citizen walking under Messiah's rule. 1. The Preamble: The Citizen’s Internal Disposition (The Beatitudes) Any national constitution opens with foundational values. Earthly empires prize military conquest, political clout, wealth, and self-assertion. Yeshua begins His charter (Matthew 5:3–12) by turning the world's value system completely upside down: Poor in Spirit: Recognizing total spiritual bankruptcy and utter dependence on the King. Mourning: Grieving over personal sin and the brokenness of a fallen world. Meekness: Possessing harnessed strength, patience, and humility rather than violent ambition. Hunger for Righteousness: Longing for God’s righteous order to prevail more than craving food or physical comfort. Mercy and Purity of Heart: Extending forgiveness and maintaining undivided, uncorrupted loyalty to God. Peacemaking: Actively reconciling estranged parties, reflecting the character of the Father. These are not separate groups of people receiving different rewards; together, they describe the temperament of the citizen who has laid down self-rule. 2. The Citizen’s Public Office: Salt and Light Citizens of the Kingdom do not live in isolationist enclaves; they are embedded directly into a decaying and dark culture (Matthew 5:13–16): Salt of the Earth: In antiquity, salt was a preservative that arrested rot and decay. Kingdom citizens preserve truth, hold back moral corruption, and bring spiritual flavor to the societies they inhabit. Light of the World: Light exposes danger and guides the traveler. Believers do not hide their allegiance to the King; their visible, tangible good works shine so that observers give glory directly to the Father. 3. The Legal Standard: Fulfilling and Internalizing the Law In Matthew 5:17–20, Yeshua establishes the legal framework of His government, dispelling any thought of lawlessness or anarchy: "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." To "fulfill" (pleroo) in Hebrew thought means to bring the law to its fullest intended meaning and expression, not to abolish it. Yeshua contrasts the superficial, external legalism of the religious establishment with the King’s internal standard. Through a series of six antitheses ("You have heard that it was said... but I say to you"), He shows that the King's law governs the thoughts and desires before an act is ever committed: Murder vs. Contempt: It is not enough to refrain from physical murder; harboring bitter anger, resentment, or hurling venomous insults (Raca) makes one liable to judgment (5:21–26). Adultery vs. Lust: Purity is not just refraining from physical unfaithfulness; looking with covetous intent is adultery in the heart (5:27–30). Oaths vs. Total Integrity: Citizens do not need elaborate religious oaths or legal loopholes to verify their truthfulness; their word is their bond—their "Yes" means yes, and their "No" means no (5:33–37). Retaliation vs. Sacrificial Generosity: Rather than demanding immediate vengeance ("an eye for an eye"), citizens yield personal rights, go the extra mile, and overcome evil with good (5:38–42). Love for Enemies: The ultimate test of Kingdom citizenship is reflecting the Father’s indiscriminate benevolence—praying for persecutors and blessing those who curse you (5:43–48). 4. Public Duty & Worship: Sincerity Over Religious Theater In Matthew 6, Yeshua regulates the three primary pillars of personal religious duty: giving, prayer, and fasting. In earthly systems, piety is often weaponized for social prestige. In the Kingdom, performance art is condemned: Secret Giving (Alms): Giving to the needy without sounding a trumpet or announcing tax write-offs; the left hand does not know what the right is doing. Secret Prayer: Communing behind closed doors with the Father, rather than reciting vain, repetitive words to impress bystanders. He provides the Model Prayer (the Lord's Prayer), teaching citizens to align their desires with the Father’s name, His kingdom coming, and His will being done on earth. Secret Fasting: Anointing the head and washing the face so that the physical affliction of fasting is unseen by men, directed only to the Father who sees in secret. 5. The Economic System: Trust, Not Striving Every kingdom has an economy. The economy of the world is driven by fear, scarcity, hoarding, and status anxiety. The Kingdom of God operates on radical faith in divine provision (Matthew 6:19–34): Currency: True wealth is not stored in physical barns, bank vaults, or commodities where moth and rust destroy; it is stored in heaven through generous, righteous living. Singular Focus: A servant cannot serve two masters. You cannot pledge allegiance to the Creator while serving Mammon (wealth/money). Freedom from Worry: Citizens do not sweat and panic over daily bread or clothing like the pagans do. The King feeds the birds of the air and clothes the lilies of the field. The citizen's sole operational directive is: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." (Matthew 6:33) 6. Relational Protocol: Righteous Discernment Without Self-Righteous Condemnation In Matthew 7:1–12, Yeshua sets the rules for how citizens treat one another: The Spec and the Log: Before attempting to perform delicate eye surgery on a brother’s fault, remove the massive log of blind self-righteousness from your own eye. Holy Discernment: While judgment is warned against, discernment is commanded—do not cast pearls before swine or give what is sacred to dogs. Persistent Petitions: Keep asking, seeking, and knocking, trusting that the Father gives good gifts to His children. The Royal Rule (The Golden Rule): "Whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets." (Matthew 7:12) 7. The Ratification: Hearing vs. Doing A constitution is useless if it is merely read and debated rather than obeyed. Yeshua concludes His address with four sobering warnings demanding personal allegiance: Two Gates: The wide, crowded gate leading to destruction versus the narrow, difficult gate leading to life (7:13–14). Two Trees: True prophets and false prophets, known not by their charisma or titles, but by their actual fruit (7:15–20). Two Confessions: Warning that crying "Lord, Lord" or performing signs in His name is worthless if one practices lawlessness (anomia). Only those who do the will of the Father will enter (7:21–23). Two Foundations: The sermon ends with a dramatic builder’s test. The person who hears these words and builds on them is a wise man who digs deep and anchors his house on the solid bedrock. When the storms, floods, and winds beat against that life, it stands firm. The person who hears and does not obey builds on shifting sand—and great is the fall of it (7:24–27). When Yeshua concluded, the crowds were astonished. He did not quote human traditions or cite precedent like the scribes; He spoke as the Lawgiver and King Himself, laying down the permanent, unalterable rule of life for all who call Him Lord.

  • Nailed to the cross | Answers 4 Saints

    Nailed To The Cross The New Covenant Bottom of the page The New Covenant The Fulfillment of the Law The New Covenant Nailed to the cross Christ Redeemed Us nailed to the cross the law of the spirit and death is hung on the cross redeeming mankind from the curse of sin and death through his death on the cross. You've perfectly summarized a core doctrine of Christianity: redemption from the curse of sin and death through Jesus' death on the cross. Let's unpack what each part of that statement means in Christian theology: "Redeeming mankind": Redeem means to "buy back " or "pay a price for something lost or forfeited." In ancient times, it could refer to buying a slave's freedom or repurchasing property. In a spiritual sense, mankind was "lost" or "enslaved" to sin and its consequences. Jesus "bought back" humanity's freedom. "From the curse of sin and death": Sin: In Christianity, sin is not merely a mistake but an active rebellion against God's holy nature and perfect will. It's disobedience and a breaking of God's law. Curse of Sin : The Bible teaches that sin brought a curse upon creation and humanity. This curse manifests as: Spiritual Death: Separation from God, which is the ultimate source of life. Physical Death : The eventual cessation of biological life. Spiritual Bondage: The inability to overcome sin's power on one's own. Condemnation : The just judgment and punishment from a holy God. The "curse" also relates to the consequences described in Genesis 3 after the Fall – toil, pain, fractured relationships, and mortality. "Through his death on the cross": This is the means by which redemption is achieved. Atonement: Jesus, being fully God and fully man, lived a perfect, sinless life. His death on the cross is understood as a substitute (vicarious) atonement. He took upon Himself the penalty and punishment for humanity's sins, satisfying the demands of divine justice. Sacrifice: His death is seen as the ultimate sacrifice, the perfect Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Victory: While appearing to be a defeat, the cross is also understood as the place where Jesus disarmed the powers of darkness, cancelled the legal debt of sin, and ultimately triumphed over sin and death (especially when combined with His resurrection). In essence, because of sin, humanity was under a divine curse leading to death and separation from God. Jesus, by willingly dying on the cross, paid the ultimate price, thereby redeeming those who believe in Galatians 3:12 The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.” 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. … COLOSSI ANS 2:13-15 13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. 14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. New Covenant The New Covenant is a central concept in Christian theology, representing a fundamental shift in God's relationship with humanity, as promised in the Old Testament and established through Jesus Christ in the New Testament. It stands in contrast to the Old Covenant (or Mosaic Covenant), which was established with Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai, centered on the Law. Here's a breakdown of the New Covenant: 1. Old Testament Prophecies of the New Covenant The idea of a "new covenant" was first prophesied in the Old Testament, most famously in: Jeremiah 31:31-34: "Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." Other prophets like Ezekiel also hint at a new spirit and new heart (e.g., Ezekiel 36:26-27). And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules. These prophecies highlight the perceived failures of the Old Covenant (people broke it) and hint at a more internal, trans formative covenant. 2. Establishment of the New Covenant in Christ Christians believe the New Covenant was inaugurated by Jesus Christ through His life, death, and resurrection: His Blood: Jesus explicitly links the New Covenant to His blood during the Last Supper: "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." (Luke 22:20; Matthew 26:28; 1 Corinthians 11:25). His sacrificial death is the basis for this new agreement. His Fulfillment of the Law: Jesus is seen as fulfilling the Old Covenant Law (Matthew 5:17), not abolishing it, but bringing it to its intended goal and perfection. He satisfied its righteous demands. His Resurrection and the Holy Spirit: The New Covenant is made effective through the power of the Holy Spirit, whom Jesus sent after His resurrection and ascension. 3. Key Characteristics of the New Covenant The New Covenant contrasts with the Old Covenant in several significant ways: Internal vs. External: The Law of the Old Covenant was primarily external, written on stone tablets. The New Covenant involves God's Law being written on the heart and mind (Jeremiah 31:33; Hebrews 8:10), implying an internal transformation and desire to obey. Forgiveness of Sins: A central promise of the New Covenant is the forgiveness of sins, where God declares, "I will remember their sin no more" (Jeremiah 31:34; Hebrews 8:12). This forgiveness is achieved through Christ's sacrifice. Direct Access to God: Under the Old Covenant, access to God was mediated through priests and rituals. Under the New Covenant, believers have direct access to God through Christ (Hebrews 4:14-16, 10:19-22). Empowerment by the Holy Spirit: Instead of relying on human effort to keep the Law (which consistently failed), the New Covenant provides the Holy Spirit to empower believers to live righteously and obey God's will (Ezekiel 36:27; Romans 8:3-4). Relationship of Grace and Faith: While the Old Covenant had elements of grace, the New Covenant is overwhelmingly characterized by grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ, rather than through perfect adherence to legalistic rituals or commands (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3:21-26). Universal Scope: While the Old Covenant was primarily with the nation of Israel, the New Covenant extends to all who believe, both Jews and Gentiles, forming a "spiritual Israel" or the Church (Galatians 3:28-29; Romans 10:12). 4. Significance for Christians For Christians, the New Covenant signifies: Salvation : It's the basis for salvation and reconciliation with God. New Life: It inaugurates a new way of life characterized by an internal transformation and empowerment by the Holy Spirit. Fulfillment: I t demonstrates God's faithfulness in fulfilling His ancient promises. Foundation of the Church: It is the foundation upon which the Christian Church is built. In summary, the New Covenant, established through Jesus Christ, is understood as a superior and everlasting covenant that brings forgiveness, internal transformation, direct access to God, and empowerment by the Holy Spirit, all based on God's grace and received through faith.
